good deal, remember you'll need/want a headphone amp to use with these.

this coming from someone with K701, Q701, K7xx(sold), K612, K601, K501, K500, K401, K400, etc.

Solid deal. Anytime you can use a luxury item like this, and then still sell it for around the same price, that 's a deal. These are going to blow up once people start seeing it.

I've got an old Onkyo amp from 25 years ago sitting in a box in my basement. Has technology changed drastically over 25 years that would make it worthwhile to purchase a new amp/pre-amp?

I remember a decade ago these used to sell for over $300, on discount. Pretty cool to see the price drop so substantially.

Absolutely not. Unless there is something wrong with the amp, any distortion will be undetectable except to sensors. Try them without a separate amp, as the amp in your phone or receiver should be plenty. If you need more gain (too quiet), then buy an amp.

Before burning your money on "audiophile" equipment, try finding better source material. In order of importance: source>speakers>amp>cable.

HIFIMAN Ananda Over-Ear Full-Size Open-Back Planar Magnetic Headphones with Stealth Magnet, Comfortable Earpads, Detachable Cable for Home and Studio https://a.co/d/1RVpGKU


These are 400 bucks I paid 1k for them and are hard to beat at any price. Easy to drive great sound and get better when you add a headphone amp

Paired with a decent dac/amp, I think you'd be surprised at the detail you can pick up with a wired pair of headphones versus your wireless earbuds.
You can't go wrong with the Sennheiser 6xx for $179:

When it comes to dac/amp, that can be quite a rabbit hole that you can find yourself in, but look up equipment from Fiio, Dragonfly, and Topping, as they offer a wide range of models to fit needs and budgets.

Remember, these are pure Chinesium now as opposed to made in Austria like it was back then.

These are reference headphones so they will sound more neutral vs your 1990 Pro.
